“On Life Support” ISIS Takes Down EgyptAir Flight 804 on Flight From France?

May 19, 2016 – San Francisco, CA – PipeLinenews.org – You really have to hand it to the tenacity of ISIS…despite being battered, torn, profusely bleeding and hooked up to a ventilator it apparently has managed to add another 66 victims to its weekly mass casualty report which now stands at well over 200 [please see for example, “Moribund” ISIS Kills Over 150 In Baghdad, PipeLineNews.org LLC]

We of course are referring here to EgyptAir flight MS804 which crashed last night after having just departed Charles De Gaulle Airport in Paris.

The MSM of course is treating the event as if there actually was a possibility of the crash being non-terror related, which might indeed be the case, but given the odds, it’s not the type of bet we would make.

What is missing from most of the strikingly similar news reports re MS804 is that just a few days ago ISIS directly threatened France with retaliation. The video containing the threat was narrated by a young male speaking IN FRENCH, saying, "I say to France: We will kill you, as you killed our brothers." Then the video continues as two Western looking young jihadis proceed to shoot two hapless orange-jump-suited captives in the head.

Not much to add at this stage of the investigation which is complicated by it having taken place over water, making a true evaluation of the crash site impossible. Generally on land the almost immediate tell-tale sign of an explosion is a wide debris field which will now be difficult to assess though forensic evidence might well still be obtainable if pieces of the wreckage can be retrieved. [note: the most commonly used plastic explosive, Semtex, has a “taggant” added to it at the point of commercial manufacture to help in such identification efforts]

Perhaps the strongest message delivered in the video is the one Western leaders still refuse to acknowledge, that this is a religious war to the death being fought on behalf of Islam, as one of the “children” in the video makes perfectly clear, stating:
